AbstractCobalt-rich crust has attracted increased attention due to their economic value. Studies have indicated that seamounts in the Western Pacific Ocean are rich in cobalt-rich crust resources. The Caiwei Guyot in Western Pacific Ocean is one of the cobalt-rich crust exploration areas contracted between China and the International Seabed Authority. A large volume of research has been conducted to elucidate the tectonic evolution, basement type, sediment type, gravity and magnetic anomaly characteristics, and geochemical characteristics of shallow surface sediments at Caiwei Guyot. However, a research gap exists on the sedimentary strata below the pelagic deposits and above the volcanic basement of the Caiwei Guyot. This paper summarizes that two main types of sediments existing on the top of Caiwei Guyot. The deposition thickness on the top of Caiwei Guyot is characterized by three sedimentary centers and exposed periphery. Pelagic sediments are difficult to form at the northeastern portion and edge area of Caiwei Guyot due to the strong bottom current environment, which makes these areas suitable for crust growth. This paper delineated three cobalt-rich crust prospective areas at the Caiwei Guyot with of significant implications for exploration and mining-lease-block selections at Caiwei Guyot. 相似文献

The results of geoacoustic studies carried out by the acoustic MAK-1M system in the southeastern Ita Mai Tai Guyot (Magellan
Seamounts, Pacific Ocean) are discussed. The obtained geoacoustic sections characterize the incoherent part of the sedimentary
sequence with high resolution. The geoacoustic stratification is well correlative with the deep-sea drilling data: the acoustic
units are reliably correlated with the lithostratigraphic units defined in the cores of DSDP holes 200 and 202. Three geoacoustic
units are distinguished in the sedimentary section (from the top downward): unit I corresponding in age to the terminal Miocene
(Messinian)-Quaternary; unit II correlated with the Late Miocene (Tortonian); unit III accumulated in the Early Eocene-Early
Miocene. The acoustic basement is composed of reefogenic limestones that were formed at different stages of the guyot’s development
through the Aptian-Turonian to Late Paleocene-Eocene. The sonar images allow the distribution of the incoherent carbonate
sediments to be contoured along the periphery of the summit’s plateau. 相似文献

The Ocean Drilling Program Leg 175 recovered a unique series of stratigraphically continuous sedimentary sections along the SW African margin, an area which is presently affected by active coastal upwelling. The accumulation rates of organic and inorganic carbon are a major component of this record. Four Leg 175 sites (1082, 1084, 1085, 1087) are chosen as part of a latitudinal transect from the present northern to southern boundaries of the Benguela Current upwelling system, to decipher the Pliocene–Pleistocene history of biogenic production and its relationship with global and local changes in oceanic circulation and climate. The pattern of CaCO3 and Corg mass accumulation rates (MARs) over 0.25-Myr intervals indicates that the evolution of carbon burial is highly variable between the northern and the southern Benguela regions, as well as between sites that have similar hydrological conditions. This, as well as the presence over most locations of high-amplitude, rapid changes of carbon burial, reflect the partitioning of biogenic production and patterns of sedimentation into local compartments over the Benguela margin. The combined mapping of CaCO3 and Corg MARs at the study locations suggests four distinct evolutionary periods, which are essentially linked with major steps in global climate change: the early Pliocene, the mid-Pliocene warm event, a late Pliocene intensification of northern hemisphere glaciation and the Pleistocene. The early Pliocene spatially heterogeneous patterns of carbon burial are thought to reflect the occurrence of mass-gravitational movements over the Benguela slope which resulted in disruption of the recorded biogenic production. This was followed (3.5–3 Ma) by an episode of peak carbonate accumulation over the whole margin and, subsequently, by the onset of Benguela provincialism into a northern and a southern sedimentary regime near 2 Ma. This mid and late Pliocene evolution is interpreted as a direct response to changes in the ventilation of bottom and intermediate waters, as well as to dynamics of the subtropical gyral circulation and associated wind stress. 相似文献

菲律宾海是西太平洋典型的风尘汇集区,也是南极底层水影响的远端地区。由于水深较大等原因,这一热点地区沉积物的古环境研究尚未全面展开。本文对菲律宾海中部XT06孔沉积物开展了磁性地层和粒度测试工作,分析了XT06孔沉积记录的年代学特征和沉积过程,初步探讨了区域沉积演化的控制因素与古环境意义。结果表明:(1)通过系统交变退磁实验,XT06孔沉积物可以辨识出6个磁极性区间,分别对应于布容正极性时、加拉米洛亚极性时、奥杜维尔正极性时和松山负极性时。通过与国际标准磁极性序列对比,发现XT06孔的沉积速率由快转慢,指示了在1.0~1.5 Ma曾发生过一次明显的沉积转折,可能代表了区域深海沉积中心的迁移,与东亚-西太平洋构造活动等密切相关。(2)XT06沉积物属于典型的远洋悬浮体,反映了较弱的沉积动力环境。通过多种粒度分析方法的交叉对比和验证,发现XT06孔沉积物包含粗、细两个互为消长的动力学组分,指示了较为稳定的深海沉积环境。通过对比其他古环境指标,我们推测在构造时间尺度上,亚洲内陆干旱化导致的粉尘输入增加可能是控制XT06孔沉积物粒度逐步变细的主要因素;而在更高时间分辨率上XT06孔沉积物粒度粗细变化可能主要受深海环流强度的控制作用,体现了冰期南极深/底层水团影响减弱、而间冰期增强的区域特征。本文结果展现了菲律宾海中部沉积过程的一些关键特征,揭示了菲律宾海沉积记录在深入研究地球系统多圈层耦合过程中的巨大潜力。 相似文献

In the seawater and sediments of the ocean, there exist huge quantities of bacteria whose living activities cause various chemical reaction processes. It is demonstrated that microorganisms play a fundamental role on chemical changes of the sediments and diageneses. Over the last twenty years, great interest has been increased about the role of deep-sea bacteria in the ferromanganese sedimentary process. Much work has been done on this aspect in the Atlantic Ocean, the Baltic Sea and the Pacific O- 相似文献

Continental shelf systems are highly dynamic sedimentary environments, where sediments from biogenic production as well as
from terrigenous sources are redistributed in the shelf depositional system, and partly exported off the shelf to the slope
and the deep sea. The Golfe d’Arguin (Mauritania, NW Africa) is dominated by such redistribution processes, involving clastic
silt imported as dust from the Sahara desert and biogenic carbonates of marine origin. Indeed, surface-sediment grain size
and mineralogy show a clear north–south partitioning of sediment type. Fine material is winnowed from the northern part of
the gulf, and transported toward the southern part off the Banc d’Arguin, where coarse silt settles on the outer shelf and
upper slope, at least down to 600 m water depth. Particles of the fine silt fraction, estimated in terms of eolian material
collected aboard the research vessel, are thought to be exported further offshore as they correspond to grain sizes previously
reported from adjacent deep-sea sediments. These findings suggest that the interpretation of dust records from the continental
slope and rise off NW Africa must consider reworking and partitioning processes active on the Mauritanian shelf. 相似文献

Phosphatized biogenic limestones and phosphorites with initial Fe-Mn mineralization dredged from the summit surface of the Kammu Seamount (Milwaukee Seamounts, northwestern Pacific) are studied. The rocks are largely composed of nannofossils and planktonic foraminifers with an admixture of benthic foraminifers, bryozoans, and other organic remains, presumably including bacterial ones. The nannofosssil and foraminiferal assemblages indicate the Quaternary age of the sediments, and their phosphatization is consistent with the phosphatization age determined previously based on nonequilibrium uranium (within the limits of 1 My). The age of phosphatization and the Fe-Mn mineralization in the sediments from Pacific seamounts that young implies the dependence of these ore-forming processes on oceanic environments favorable for ore accumulation rather than on their age. 相似文献

Paleomagnetic properties of sediment cores were examined to reconstruct paleodepositional conditions in the Korea Deep Ocean Study (KODOS) area, located in the northeastern equatorial Pacific. The studied KODOS sediments have a stable remanent magnetization with both normal and reversed polarities, which are well correlated with the geomagnetic polarity timescale for the late Pliocene and Pleistocene. Average sedimentation rates are 1.56 and 0.88 mm/kiloyear for the Pleistocene and late Pliocene, respectively. Clay mineralogy and scanning electron microscope analyses of the sediments indicate that terrestrial material was transported to the deep-sea floor during these times. The variations of sedimentation rates with age may be explained by the onset of the northern hemisphere glaciation and subsequent climatic deterioration during the Pliocene and Pleistocene. For the Pleistocene, an increasing sedimentation rate implies that input of terrestrial materials was high, and also a high input of biogenic materials was detected as a result of increased primary production in the surface water. The down-core variations in paleomagnetic and rock-magnetic properties of the KODOS sediments were affected by dissolution processes in an oxic depositional regime. As shown by magnetic intensity and hysteresis parameters, the high natural remanent magnetization (NRM) stability in the upper, yellowish brown layers indicates that the magnetic carrier was in pseudo-single domain states. In the lower, dark brown sediments, only coarse magnetic grains survived dissolution and the NRM was carried by more abundant, multi-domain grains of low magnetic stability. The down-core variation of magnetic properties suggests that the KODOS sediments were subjected to dissolution processes resulting in a loss of the more stable components of the magnetic fraction with increasing core depth. 相似文献

西太平洋麦哲伦海山区是全球重要的铁锰结壳资源分布区,具有丰富的稀土元素资源潜力。本文对采自麦哲伦海山区Kocebu海山的11个铁锰结壳表层样(<1 mm)进行稀土元素地球化学研究,探讨其含量特征、成因和影响稀土元素富集的环境因素。结果表明:Kocebu海山铁锰结壳表层样品ΣREY(Rare earth elements and yttrium)平均含量为1366 mg/kg,低于前人在麦哲伦海山区其他海山以及邻近的马尔库斯–威克海山区的分析结果;样品轻稀土富集和Ce正异常(平均值为1.45)特征以及稀土元素成因图解、配分曲线和分配系数曲线等均表明该海山结壳属于水成成因;海水中稀土元素含量和溶解氧含量是控制结壳生长的关键环境参数,二者在Kocebu海山所在海区的浅水环境中含量较低;结壳ΣREY含量偏低与采样点水深较浅导致的海水稀土元素含量和溶解氧含量较低密切相关,受碎屑矿物的稀释作用影响较小。在开展铁锰结壳地球化学特征研究和资源勘探评价时应充分考虑采样水深的分布范围,局部水深样品的分析结果可能导致研究结果出现较大偏差。 相似文献

The paleomagnetic records and mineral-magnetic properties of unconsolidated core sediment from the east Mariana Basin of the western Pacific have been analyzed to trace the time-dependent variations in sedimentary environments. Progressive alternating field demagnetization effectively extracts a stable remanent magnetization showing both normal and reverse polarities. Comparison of successive polarity changes, recorded in the sediment core, with reference magnetic polarity time-scale, reveals that the recovered sediment column was deposited since the late Pliocene. From the sediment age model, calculated sedimentation rate during the late Pliocene was 9.8 times higher than that during the Pleistocene. Considering the oceanic environments and geologic setting in the study area, the anomalous high sediment flux during the late Pliocene was probably caused by enhanced current flows, such as North Equatorial Current, associated with atmospheric circulation as well as by debris flows from adjacent sea mounts. In addition, the systematic variation of mineral-magnetic properties indicates periodical fluxes of coarse and magnetically stable particles, on the fine-grained dominant sedimentary environments. Such influxes, however, would not be related to syn-volcanic activities, because the summits of seamounts were totally blanketed by biogenic Pliocene-Pleistocene sediments. It is, hence, reasonable to interpret that paleomagnetic and mineral-magnetic data probably reflect drastic paleoenvironmental changes at the boundary between the Pliocene and Pleistocene, where strong current and atmospheric circulations decreased. 相似文献

A deep-sea sediment core (GC98-06) from the southernmost Drake Passage, West Antarctica, shows late Quaternary depositional
environments distinctly different from sedimentary drifts commonly found along the southwestern Pacific margin of the Drake
Passage. The chronology of the core has been inferred using geochemical tracers of paleoproductivity and diatom biostratigraphy,
and represents the paleoceanographic conditions in a continental rise setting during the last 150,000 years. Three dominant
sediment types associated with distinct sedimentary processes have been identified using textural/compositional analyses:
(1) hemipelagic mud (interglacial sediments) deposited from pelagic settling of bioclasts, meltwater plumes, and ice-rafted
detritus; (2) terrigenous mud (glacial sediments) delivered by turbid meltwater plumes; and (3) massive muds marking the boundaries
from interglacial to glacial periods. The succession of the sedimentary facies in core GC98-06 is interpreted to reflect temporal
changes in environmental conditions prevailing on the continental rise of the southern Drake Passage in the course of successive
climatic stages over the last 150 ka: from the bottom upward, these are glacial, interglacial, glaciation, glacial, and interglacial
episodes. Variability in sediment flux and diatom abundance seem to have been related to changes in glacial advance, sea-ice
extent, and specific sedimentary environments, collectively influenced by mid- to late Quaternary climatic changes. 相似文献

It has recently been realized that the Arctic undergoes drastic changes, probably resulting from global change induced processes. This acts on the cycling of matter and on biogenic elements in the Arctic Ocean having feedback mechanisms with the global climate, for example by interacting with atmospheric trace gas concentration. A contemporary budget for biogenic elements as well as suspended matter for the Arctic Ocean as a baseline for comparison with effects of further global change is, thus, needed. Available budgets are based on the late Holocene sedimentary record and are therefore quiet different from the present which has already been affected by the intense anthropogenic activity of the last centuries.
We calculated a contemporary suspended matter and organic carbon budget for the Kara Sea utilizing the numerous available data from the recent literature as well as our own data from Russian-German SIRRO (Siberian River Run-off) expeditions. For calculation of the budgets we used a multi-box model to simplify the Kara Sea shelf and estuary system: input was assumed to comprise riverine and eolian input as well as coastal erosion, output was assumed to consist of sedimentation and export to the Arctic Ocean. Exchange with the adjacent seas was considered in our budget, and primary production as well as recycling of organic material was taken into account. According to our calculations, about 18.5 × 106 t yr− 1 of sediments and 0.37 × 106 t yr− 1 of organic carbon are buried in the estuaries, whereas 20.9 × 106 t yr− 1 sediment and 0.31 × 106 t yr− 1 organic carbon are buried on the shelf. Most sources and sinks of our organic carbon budget of the Kara Sea are in the same order of magnitude, making it a region very sensitive to further changes. 相似文献

华南珠江三角洲河口地区受到珠江流域和近海海洋环境的共同影响,其沉积体系中承载的古地质记录对于揭示海陆交互作用下的地质地貌过程演化具有独特意义。本研究对珠江伶仃洋湾口的一条钻孔岩芯进行了环境磁学研究。研究发现,在晚更新世以来海水入侵的相对高海平面时期,岩芯沉积物中磁性矿物的组成或高矫顽力组分的来源更稳定,反映了沉积区环境的稳定性或沉积物源区的相对固定;在海水退出的风化剥蚀期,沉积序列中磁性矿物组合出现大幅度旋回变化,这表明同时期碎屑物质源区可能经历了显著的环境更替。多重磁学参数包括低频磁化率、非磁滞剩磁、饱和等温剩磁以及HIRM参数,在全岩芯中指示了比较一致的磁性变化特征;相较之下,S-ratio参数的变化更灵敏地响应了伶仃洋湾口地区海水入侵和退出背景下的沉积演化历史。 相似文献

磁性矿物的早期成岩作用是沉积物埋藏后的重要过程,辨别早期成岩作用,才能更好地解释地层的矿物磁性变化。本研究对珠江三角洲顺德平原全新世钻孔MZ孔进行沉积相和室温磁性分析,并辅以热磁分析鉴定磁性矿物,以探讨钻孔不同深度和沉积相的早期成岩作用阶段。结果表明,MZ孔全新世地层自下而上包括感潮河道、河口湾和三角洲相。室温磁性特征与沉积相缺乏明显关联,表现出强烈的早期成岩作用。此外,全新世晚期岩芯磁性特征还受人类活动影响。该孔早期成岩作用以磁性矿物溶解和形成自生黄铁矿为主。在三角洲前缘相的上部和河口湾相底部保存了硫复铁矿。根据矿物组合推测以4.51～4.56 m和30.4～30.5 m两个深度为代表的硫复铁矿形成机制不同,即三角洲前缘相中硫复铁矿可能形成于早期成岩作用的硫酸盐还原阶段,而河口湾相的硫复铁矿形成于甲烷厌氧氧化阶段,后者的含量随着深度增加逐渐增多。上述现象说明,沉积环境可以通过影响有机质和硫酸根离子的供应量,决定磁性矿物所达到的早期成岩作用阶段。 相似文献
